LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Where’s the amble?

Published 9:38 am Thursday, May 23, 2024

We all know we have a PREAMBLE…do we also have an AMBLE?

PREAMBLE, noun; A preliminary statement, an introduction that EXPLAINS its purpose.

AMBLE, intransitive verb; a verb used without a object. Also ‘to walk slowly or leisurely; to stroll’.

So, perhaps we are to Amble-up to the library or bookstore or to our laptop’s place and the read the Constitution and the Preamble so that we may have a firm understanding of who we are supposed to be rather than what we have become?

Have you ever asked yourself, as I have, this question; “If it starts with the Preamble, then does it then follow that the following stuff must logically be the AMBLE of the United States? Do not worry, I’ll still call it the Constitution…it’s the least I can do to avoid any confusion.

One might have noticed that I tend to ask a lot of questions…some Silly?…some Stupid? But is it not true that “There is no such thing as a Stupid Question”? (Just Stupid People perhaps?). And a question itself is actually a quest for knowledge that may end in FAILURE.

One failure of BIBLICAL proportions is Joe Biden’s presidency…one NOT characterized as a quest for knowledge, but a quest for something very different.

America, over the past 3+ years under the JOE BIDEN ‘leadership’ of the BIDEN ADMINISTRATION has seen some tremendous changes foisted upon us by those who seem hell-bent to upset the Apple-cart and replace it with rotting fruits and vegetables from their garden…no offence to actual fruits and vegetables, both human or not, intended. Was that offensive to some? Perhaps, but we in America still have the right to ‘call a spade a spade’, do we not?

And, that right is found in the Constitution of the U.S., which starts off with the Preamble to it. Pretty simple stuff so far?

This led me to wonder if the INTENTIONS of our Founding Fathers was that we AMBLE (move slowly) toward our goal…kind of amble along down the path to create the finest and greatest Government in their times and in the future times as well.

Yet, the BIDEN ADMINISTRATION does not follow the guidelines laid out for us in the Constitution and actually ignores the very spirit and intentions contained in the very first words of that document…the PREAMBLE.

The Preamble is NOT the ‘law of the land’…the Constitution is. So, can you trust those who reject the very heart of our beautiful Constitution…the Preamble? And if they reject the very intentions of we (the people) should we not reject them in November?

I will answer the above questions simply be stating…we MUST reject those whose own intentions do us HARM.

If we want to return to the path leading us to Greatness once again, our choice is sitting in a courtroom ticked-off about a few things happening to him.

Perhaps, as the Pony Express rider once did, we should change horses in the middle of the stream? We could then travel down a path NOT littered by mediocracy and bald faced lies. Sure they both lie, but some are real whoppers…others were/are related to a cover-up. The ‘BK-GUY’s is sinking this ‘ship’, the other’s goofy trial makes us the foolish nation of all times. Which do YOU think is worse?

CAN we Make America Great Again? I hope so and I’m willing to give him another shot at it.

Please go read this Preamble thingy and decide who to support this November and for the next four years.

This date will determine Who, What, Where, When and Why for America…treat it with your informed knowledge of the real FACTS…do NOT buy into the BS being tossed by the desperate Democrats who only love THEIR jobs…paid for by YOU.

I actually enjoy having a DIVISION of power…not the ‘one-man Bidenism’ who will Executive-Order us to DEATH.

Yip, give me a guy who respects the Supreme Court and the Congress and who only wants us to live free of Marxism…Who probably understands the PREAMBLE and would appreciate it if he can do his part to, say, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.
